$A$ block of mass $M$ is lying on a horizontal frictionless surface. One end of a uniform rope of mass $M/2$ is fixed to the block, which is pulled in the horizontal direction by applying a force $F$ at the other end. The tension in the middle of the rope will be

  • A
    $F/3$
  • B
    $3F/4$
  • C
    $4F/5$
  • D
    $5F/6$

$A$ block of mass $48 \ kg$ kept on a smooth horizontal surface is pulled by a rope of length $4 \ m$ by a horizontal force of $25 \ N$ applied to the other end. If the linear density of the rope is $0.5 \ kg \ m^{-1}$,the force acting on the block is (in $N$)

Two blocks $A$ and $B$,each of mass $m$,are placed on a smooth horizontal surface. Two horizontal forces $F$ and $2F$ are applied on the two blocks $A$ and $B$ respectively,as shown in the figure. The block $A$ does not slide on block $B$. Then,the normal reaction acting between the two blocks is
